September 21st's Days in History

1863 - Union forces retreat to Chattanooga after defeat at Chickamauga, which is just west of Dalton, Georgia. Chickamauga was the 2nd most killing field in the Civil War.

1947 - Stephen King was born. Stephen King, I think, is the most prolific of substance writer I have evern read...and he just keeps on banging them out. I became a Stephen King burned-out many years ago.

1948 - "Texaco Star Theater" with Milton Berle premieres on NBC-TV. Remember Uncle Miltie and how he loved to parade around dressed in drag and we just howled. A man dressed up in a dress! How funny! we thought.
